Match 7 of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) will see the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) take on defending champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Thursday. Both franchises lost their respective opening encounters and will be keen to put up a much-improved performance. While Lucknow lost to the Gujarat Titans (GT) by five wickets, Chennai went down to Kolkata by six wickets.

The batting of both IPL teams let them down in their respective previous matches. LSG stumbled to 29 for 4 before recovering courtesy of half-centuries from Deepak Hooda and Ayush Badoni. On the other hand, CSK fought back from 61 for 5 to post 131 as MS Dhoni held the innings together with a fifty.

Apart from the teams, the leaders will be under additional pressure as well. Both KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja were underwhelming in their first matches as captains of their respective franchises. While Rahul has led Punjab before, he did not look at ease against Gujarat. As for Jadeja, he looked under the pump on captaincy debut.


Today's IPL toss result

The Lucknow Super Giants have won the toss and have opted to bowl first. Explaining the decision to field, Lucknow skipper KL Rahul said:

β€œThe ball gets wet in the second innings - that's the only reason, also it's a fresh wicket, grass on it, want to take early wickets.”
